On February 26, Parkland Food Bank is hosting the Coldest Night of the Year, a 2 & 5 km winter walk (with a self-organized virtual option) hosted in 150+ cities across Canada in support of our work in Spruce Grove, Stony Plain or Parkland County with people experiencing hurt, and hunger.
• GOAL: With your help, our goal is to raise $80,000 by February 26, 2022!
• HOW: To accomplish our goal, we’re looking for 50 team captains (of all shapes, sizes and ages) who will recruit 7-8 friends to their team, with a goal of raising $2000 per team. Of course, we’re also looking for a whole pile of walkers to join each of our teams and help us raise the funds.
• TOQUE BONUS: Every walker who raises either $75 (youth 17 and under) or $150 (for adults) gets our famous Coldest Night toque as thanks for being amazing fundraisers.
